Don't let the WiFi probe invade your privacy

According to media surveys, an advertising marketing device with WiFi probes as the main technical means has quietly emerged. Such devices collect user information by acquiring the user's mobile phone Mac (Media Access Control) address.

Some devices can force the user's mobile phone to pop up the window, and pretend to be connected to WiFi on the WeChat top interface to deliver "dog skin plaster" ads that cannot be eliminated. WeChat said that it has monitored such malicious deception and has responded technically to the monitored situation.

The WiFi probe is suspected of infringing on the privacy of users and should be severely punished according to law. In addition to the network platform to assume responsibility, the regulatory authorities should also slash swords in time to protect personal information and build information security barriers.
